"Hi Kell, what's up?" asked Jane, noticing her busty blonde roommate peeking through the open door.
"I just finished my Chem lab that's due on Monday and wanted to see what's up around here. You guys doin' anything interesting?" Kelli walked into the guys dorm room. All three boys took notice of the prototypical Southern California, blonde hair, blue-eyed, 18 year old goddess with legs up to her neck and a chest that could barely be contained by a bikini. Kelli Smith didn't go many places where she wasn't immediately the center of male attention.
Jane was surprised at Kelli's arrival. To the disappointment of all the guys on the co-ed dorm floor, Kelli was usually in her room studying or reading a book. Most weekends she went home to visit her parents. Being anti-social was a kind description. If not for her incredible looks she would have been considered an absolute bookwormish nerd. Instead, she was just considered as playing "hard to get". At least that's what all the guys in the dorm told each other. Then Jane remembered that her roommate's parents were away on a vacation, realizing Kelli must be stuck in the school dorm all weekend.
"Not a whole heck of a lot is interesting in this room. We were just thinking about playing some liar's dice. Justin got some homeless guy to buy a bottle of tequila for us." Jane winked at Kelli, knowing the freshman wasn't a big drinker. Jane had never seen her take a sip of anything harder than diet coke.
Kelli glanced around the small, messy dorm room. It was Justin and
Roger's room, one slept on a bed on each side of the room. Both were busy setting up a folding card table and a couple chairs. Beth, a cute brunette that lived in the room next to Kelli and Jane's was there, as was Steve, a friend of Justin's from his hometown. Steve lived on the floor below with the rest of the lacrosse team. Kelli saw him and flashed a timid smile his way.
Steve smiled back at Kelli and patted the bed next to where he sat,
"Come on Kelli, kick back and play with us."
"I don't know how to play, but thanks anyway." Kelli muttered. Blushing, she turned to go back to her room. She wasn't used to being in the company of so many people.
"Wait a sec," called Steve, "let me show you how to play. It's really simple. If a brainiac like you doesn't understand after I'm done explaining then you can go, alright?" Kelli shrugged and sat on the bed next to him. "OK, we play with 5 dice and a cup, like this one" he picked up the plastic cup and rattled the dice inside. "The first person shakes and then looks at what they have without showing anyone else, then they call a hand. The next person to go decides if they want to try and beat that throw, or call the person a liar. If you call the person a liar and are right, they have to take a drink, if you call 'em a liar and you're wrong, you take a drink. Oh, and if you try to beat the roll, you have to have something better, so even if you don't get shit, lie about it. Then the next person around the table decides to roll or call you a liar. That's pretty easy, huh?" Kelli nodded. Steve asked, "Have you played poker before?"
"Yep!" replied Kell enthusiastically. "We used to play in high school, my family had a game night every Friday."
"Really? Well, you need to roll a better poker hand to beat the last person, so I don't need to teach you that. You'll probably kick ass at this game, if you have a good poker face that is. Did you win much when you played with your family?" asked Steve.
"I won more than I lost," beamed Kelli proudly, "but it was just for fun."
"So, are you gonna stay and play or what?" interrupted Jane.
"Um, yeah, I guess so. It sounds kinda fun." Kelli thought she'd be good at this game, especially when Steve had asked about her poker face. Back home she had always won against her family. They said they could never tell when she was bluffing.
The dorm friends gathered around the table that Justin had set up in the small room. On the card table sat the cup and dice, a bottle of tequila and 6 shot glasses borrowed from Roger's collection. Justin filled each glass with tequila and slid one in front of each person.
"Ok guys, this is like the lighting of the torch at the Olympics. Let's do a shot and get started." Justin threw his shot down his throat and the rest followed suit, Kelli last of all. After she finished the drink with a grimace and a coughing fit, she was greeted with a round of applause. "Last to drink, first to roll, go ahead Kelli" said Justin, placing the cup of dice in front of her.
Kelli shook the cup and rolled. She carefully raised the cup so only she could see the dice, "Um, two of a kind, twos and sixes."
"I can beat that," said Justin. He rolled. "Three threes."
Roger was next and called three sixes. Jane said she had a full house, ones and twos, Beth called her a liar and was right, Jane slammed down the shot Justin had poured for her.
The next round started with Beth, who called out three fours. Steve's turn came up and with an "OH Damn!" called five fours. Realizing only two hands could beat Steve, Kelli called him a liar. With a shit eating grin he showed her the hand.
"Oh gosh!" exclaimed Kelli and with a grimace drank the tequila. Steve started the next round since he hadn't been lying. He shook the dice, looked under the cup and with a big smile said, "Four sixes, Kelli, I guess its not your lucky day."
She looked at him quizzically, trying to figure out if he was telling the truth. Then it dawned on her she would need five of a kind to beat him. Kelli decided he was telling the truth. He was going first, why would he bluff? She rolled the dice and quickly said five twos.
"Yeah, right" said Justin as he lifted the cup. "Looks like you meant to say 'two fives'" Kelli was poured another shot.
She looked at Steve, "Did you really have four sixes?"
He started laughing and pushed the tequila shot towards her. "God Dammit!" cursed Kelli. Jane looked at her roommate in shock, having heard her curse for the first time. Justin and Roger started chanting, "Kelli, Kelli, Kelli!" With a giggle, she drank the liquor. The three shots of tequila were burning in her belly and quickly having an effect on her inhibitions. Getting rid of them, that is.
The next round Steve called Beth a liar and lost, Jane called Roger's bluff and made him drink. Justin lost when Kelli had rolled five twos on the next round, then Kelli lost again when she didn't think Steve had five of a kind. She was starting to feel light headed, giggling at jokes that were made and making stupid mistakes with the dice. Kelli had noticed the vulgar language and sexual innuendos the group used and at first had been mortified. But now, she thought, it didn't seem so bad...the jokes they made were really funny and she scolded herself for being such a prude.
The next time it came around Kelli grinned and said said, "Six twos". Justin laughed and lifted the cup, "Hey Kelli, there are only five dice remember?" Everyone laughed but Kelli, who was already busy taking another drink.
She was starting to hear a ringing in her ears and felt very flush, it was pleasant though and she was liking the feeling. She was aware that her leg was rubbing against Steve's. Every time it was her turn, he would touch her knee or thigh and say, "Your turn, Kelli" or something similar. With every touch, she was becoming more aware of the heat between her legs. A few times she caught herself staring at his lips, his eyes or his biceps.
After another half hour of playing and a few more shots, Kelli was completely drunk. Beth, also quite tipsy, decided she'd had enough and excused herself to go to bed. Steve exclaimed with a sigh, "I'm bored of this game. Kelli, you wanna play something else? I don't think you should play any more drinking games."
She looked greatfully at him. "Neither do I. What kind of a game do you have in mind, Steve-O?" she asked, giggling at her nicknaming prowess. All the guys grinned at her, making her feel even more witty.
"How about some poker? You were telling me before you had played with your family back home. Sounded like you are pretty good."
"That sounds like a fantastic idea, now you guys will be on my turf. Do you have any chips?" asked Kelli. "Hopefully you have some chips 'cause you guys won't be playing long if we are playing for money." she added arrogantly.
"On your turf?" replied Justin "What are you, the great white poker player? You don't wanna play for money, babe, cuz you'll lose it all playing with us guys."
"Whatever, Justin." she retorted, getting angry at his cockiness and the implication she couldn't win just because she was a girl. "I'll beat the pants off you guys."
A large grin came over Roger's face, "So you wanna play strip poker, huh Kelli?"
She snapped her head in Roger's direction, "I did not say that."
"Yeah you did, you just said you'd take our pants, you're not gonna chicken out now are you? If you're so good, what do you have to worry about? Or are you afraid that we'll all get to see you sitting there naked with three clothed guys."
"BAWK, BAWK, BAWK, BAWK". Steve started chanting and the other two quickly joined in the cluck taunting.
Kelli retorted hotly, "I don't have a thing to worry about. I'll take your pants and your underwear too. And when you lose everything you have on, you'll have to run across campus at noon, bare-ass naked!"
